After the war, Grosz was the most savage cartoonist in a country that, with Sim- plicissimus to set the pace, did not lack APARTMENTS with KIT HENETTES strong satire and caricature. Grosz FURNISHED OR UNFURNISHED pictured a bourgeois and Junker Ger- many that was in a state of almost liquid dissolution.
